The hidden ace among the collectible card games on the PS2.

A bit of a let down, promising a game filled with car transforming fun but delivering something more annoying than enjoyable to play.

Distractingly strange, with clunky controls, mixed up graphics and a story line that is just plain out confusing.

As much as I love my PS 2, this version is the ugly cousin in the Max Payne family. Rent before purchase.

Don’t bother with this game; the developer didn’t seem to really try and neither should you.

I liked it better when it was called "Splinter Cell."

It’s the jack-of-all-trades but master of none, and as long as you go in knowing that, then there’s a lot to be had in Deux Ex: Invisible War.

A sold third-person shooter but gets a little old after awhile, the game’s saving grace is its well-written plot and myriad of dialogue jokes. It’s almost like playing a Monty Python script.

There are just too many problems with its core gameplay for it to be a worthwhile and enjoyable experience. In the end, Lords of EverQuest is a mediocre game in a sea of refined and polished strategy games.

Even great visuals and sound can’t save a game from the dual curse of poor game control and little replay value.

The adventure game for hardcore adventure enthusiasts – it’s a long and tough trek, but a journey worth taking if you can look past the rough edges.

More an experience than game, a cinematic feat that really lives up to the idea of putting a gamer in a story and making them care what happens.

The controls for instance are easy to use and the AI is good enough to keep the enemies from being sitting ducks but not impossible to destroy.

One of the really cool features of the Xbox version of this game is that you can go online through Xbox Live to check out the high scores for any of the games or upload your own for bragging rights. It really makes the games that much more fun to play.

The frustration of Spawn comes mostly when you are trying to move him around tight spots, or see what the heck is going on right in front of him when he is near a wall.

A solid game that will appeal to those who wanted more from Jedi Outcast. It isn't going to blaze any new trails however so make sure you align your expectations before purchasing.

I liked the game sometimes and other times I despised it. Then again, maybe that is what they were shooting for.

Almost every aspect functions at an extremely low quality level with controls that are jerky, continually re-appearing enemies in the most unlikely places, and seriously weak AI.

While FFX2 could’ve been better, as it does rely significantly on the design of FFX, it’s still a top notch title. It can be a little too ‘pop’ music style, but once you get over that, it’s just as dramatic as any other FF game.

The graphics give a good portrayal of World War II battlefields with detailed planes and reasonable texturing.

Although this latest T3 is a far cry better than the other iterations of this movie-franchise cross-over, the GBA T3 just doesn’t have enough good in it to make it worth owning.

There's no denying that the Counter-Strike formula still works and as such, is still a load of fun. It’s just a shame that Xbox owners are only getting a slightly upgraded game that’s over five years old.

Certainly the best racing game out there for the Xbox, what it lacks in high level racing realism it more than makes up for in sheer fun.

The most fun I’ve had in quite awhile is playing the Rivals pick-up games – a fast moving, no-sticks-barred, 3-on-3 game of ice hockey on a little ice pond out in the middle of nowhere.

Although it's far from cutting edge graphically, it puts together a balanced gameplay that fans of the card game should enjoy.

Suffers from a lot of minor issues from bland graphics to somewhat unresponsive play.

A downside to the game is that the levels are very tunnel like in their lay out. The inside levels are all fairly linear and the outside levels are typically in the recesses of huge trenches, so you don’t do a lot of meandering. Although the level design is lacking in some ways, the game developers have done a good job of finding strengths in the maps.

There’s little depth, but it’s a decent tradeoff for the ease of play that only EQOA: Frontiers offers.
